CREATURE FEATURE! (ON-LINE AND ANIMATED)

ON ROUTE 666, BABY
Two of my minimalists came out recently in the Microhorror site edited by Neil Rosen. I think it's for the Hallowe'en ish `cause the rules said the word count shouldn't exceed 666 words. How wasak is that? Hehe ; ) Thanks Mr. Rosen!

Anyhoo here's the link to "The Phantasma". . .

FLY ASWANG (OR THAT "BESWANG" PROJECT) SET FOR RELEASE
In other news, an animation project I got signed on to earlier this year looks like it's all set for release. Basically this was made under CreaM Inc, a film company owned and run by Imee Marcos (yep, the senator), comissioned by the Badilla family to do a "superhero comics meets Nickelodeon's Totally Spies meets local lower mythology" with former supermodel Bessie Badilla and her children as protagonists in one of the coolest genre clashes ever.

This is an aswang caper, billed as an original Pinoy anime adventure, you won't soon forget.

I wrote the dialogues for this and basically acted as their, uhm, supernatural affairs consultant for the first two episodes. Since animation takes a gruelling several months to finish the product you see here, to look good as it does, was definitely done with much blood, sweat and sleepless nights by project director Mark Galvez and his legion of digital savants. In any case it looks way better than many of the recent animated movies made locally. Actually, it looks pretty amazing.
